    Phagers for members of the Gone fansite Gaiaphage.com, and Fayzians for fans of the series itself. That being said, most Fayzians are members of Gaiaphage, so the terms overlap a lot.

    Nonnatuns (Call the Midwife)
    Pushing Daisies fans have been known in some parts to argue over whether "Daisy-Pushers" or "Pie Hos" would be a preferential fan community nickname. (When deciding, as the mention of this conflict will most assuredly have you doing, please note the negative connotations of "Pie Hos".)

    Whosers (Whose Line Is It Anyway??)

The adjective to describe such a person is "Ben-addicted" or "Cumberbatched". Another one is "Cumbercookie", since they are all Cumbercookies and together they make this beautiful Cumberbatch.
            The term has regained popularity since Sherlock hit the United States.
            Tumblr would beg to differ.

    While there isn't one for the fandom as a whole, the Game of Thrones community on Television Without Pity is divided between the Unsullied (those who have not read the books), and the Bookwalkers (those who have read the books). Unlike most divisions among fandoms, this one is quite amiable, aside from resentment among the Unsullied for when Bookwalkers drop spoilers.
    The popularity of certain crossover fandoms has produced such names as Wholockians (fans of Doctor Who and Sherlock), Superwhovians (fans of Supernatural and Doctor Who), and Superwholockians (fans of all three).
    Power Force (Saban's name for Big Name Power Rangers fans)
        When the extremist fringes of the traditionally friendly Super Sentai and Power Rangers fandoms go off at one another, one will refer to the other as Sentai Snobs and Anti-Sentites respectfully.
        Saban has also used the terms Super Fans and Ranger Nation, referring to the Periphery Demographic adult fanbase as a whole. Neither were popular with the fandom however, and Ranger Nation is already the name for the fans of the New York Rangers NHL team.

    WWE seems dead set on branding fans of the promotion in general as, collectively, "The WWE Universe." The effort the announcers and wrestlers put into shilling the new name makes it seem forced and unnatural in their dialogue.
    Wrestling fans in general have been called "the IWC," or "International Wrestling Community."
    During the Monday Night Wars era, WWE fans labeled WCW fans "Lemmings" (following the floundering WCW off a cliff) and WCW fans labeled WWE fans "Sheep" (follwing WWE no matter what). Members of both communities embraced the monikers ironically.

-RADIO

     Dittoheads: Fans of the Rush Limbaugh Talk radio show, coined from callers' tendency to say "Dittos" as a greeting to the host, which originated from one caller who said that instead of spending valuable airtime praising the show and the host, she would simply "ditto what the previous caller said" - at first used derisively by those who assumed it simply meant blind agreement with the host, but openly embraced by the fans.
    Fans of British radio star Terry Wogan are either TOGs (Terry's Old Geezers/Gals) or TYGs (Terry's Young Guys/Girls). There are also a number of other terms no longer in widespread use, such as TWITs (Terry Wogan Is Top).
    Australian radio host Philip Adams refers to his listeners as "Gladdies," a reference to a running joke that the only people who listen to his show are little old ladies called Gladys.
    Clones: Fans of the Jim Rome sports talk show, spawned from fans and callers' tendency to have similar opinions to each other adn often simply reiterating Rome's given opinon on a topic.
    Cabin Crew or Fandot: Fans of the BBC series CabinPressure, which is about a tiny charter airline called MJN Air. The "fandot" references Carolyn Knapp-Shappey's line "I don't have an airline. I have one jet. You cannot put one jet in a line. If MJN is anything, it is an airdot."

    Canuckleheads, used by detractors of the Vancouver Canucks
    Leafs Nation (Toronto Maple Leafs) Alternately, Long Suffering Leafs fan.

    Dawgs (Cleveland Browns, coined by cornerback Hanford Dixon in 1985; the bleacher section is named the Dawg Pound).
    Devils Army (New Jersey Devils)
    The 12th man (Seattle Seahawks). Now known for setting a world record for stadium noise.
        I'm sorry, that term has been used by Texas A&M for decades before the Seahawks ever existed. In fact, the Seahawks pay A&M to use the term.
    NASCAR has several, with the Junior Nation (Dale Earnhardt Jr.), the Said Heads (part-time driver Boris Said), and the Rainbow Warriors (Jeff Gordon) being the most well known.

    Dot pokers (DJMAX Technika)
    Sonicfags (Sonic the Hedgehog)
    Smashers (Super Smash Bros.)
        Too Bigots, a not-too affectionate nickname for the Vocal Minority who thinks that Ridley (or any other particularly large character like King K. Rool) shouldn't be made playable at all because of his size.

    Playgrounders ( The Order of the Stick after the site name, Giant in the Playground. Fans of the other webcomic on the site are referred to as Erfworlders.)
        Although the name has stopped being used quite as much, fans of Erfworld still refer to themselves and each other as "Idiots" on occasion: For reference, it's because when discussing the comic on another forum, someone stated something to the affect of: "Only and idiot could like this!", thus giving us a Real Life example of Insult Backfire. At the authors' request, the fans were subsequently called Tools for a time.

            Georgians has also occasionally been used by Sukka fans (from the meme where any Portmanteau Couple Name sounded too much like either "Sokka" or "Suki", so they gave up and agreed to call the couple "George.")
        The term "Avatard" has occasionally come under fire by advocates for the mentally challenged, who feel it promotes the epithet "retard". Fans continue to use it anyway.
            Additionally, some fans of James Cameron's Avatar have tried to comandeer the nickname for themselves, which has caused some friction in parts of the internet where the two fandoms collide. The general consensus is that fans of ATLA have claim on the name since they came first.
        Hotmen is also used sometimes.

        Female bronies are sometimes called "pegasisters". This term also predates Friendship Is Magic as noted below.

    Transfans (Transformers) - hey, it's better than Trannies.
        The even dodgier "Wrecktums" is the self-depreciating term for fans of Last Stand of the Wreckers, and the Wreckers in general. Then there's "Furmanites", for fans of Simon Furman.
